Lastly, and before we have the exchange of vows, one item of fatherly advice. Here is a verse from a song that I think has a good message for two young people looking toward a life together:
We said we’d walk together, come what may
And if we’re walking, a hand should slip free
I’ll wait for you
And should I fall behind
Wait for me
Both of you will change in the years ahead. You may develop new interests, discard old ones. You won’t always walk together at the same pace, but if one moves ahead and one falls behind, please wait for each other.
